I'm a retired woman who has sailed most of my life. I've had both shoulders operated on, so in order to keep sailing I need some extra help. The cost of power winches is prohibitive so I'm looking at all other options. Ewincher is from France and looks like a good design for the tune of 2200Euros. WinchRite is cheaper but looks awkward to use. I have considered just buying a cordless drill motor with the winchbit sold on ebay. I would love to hear from anyone who as actually pulled a mainsail up using such a device. Thanks!
